It's like picking your favorite child. Can't do it. They both have their good and not so good points although I can't think of anything bad about a dog at this moment.:)

Hey Sam, you could do the Crete story in honor of our current help from our allies? If there is a will there is a way. :)

I trust you'll find an angle. Relatives of freepers is a good one.

*By mid-January, amidst heavy snow squalls, U-123 and U-66 entered U.S. waters. The drumbeat commenced. Seventy-five miles east of Cape Hatteras, with no moon to betray their presence, U-66 waited patiently. Soon, a darkened shape appeared moving left to right across the U-boat's bow. At 2:30 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 18, two torpedoes tore into the hull of the Allan Jackson, a tanker laden with 72,000 barrels of oil bound for New York. Twenty-two men perished. Eight oil-soaked survivors escaped in a lifeboat only to be pulled toward the grinding ship's propeller.*
